SAN DIEGO — The crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Benjamin Bottoms (WPC-1132) interdicted four suspected aliens aboard a 20-foot cabin cruiser-style vessel approximately 10 miles west of Point Loma, California, Saturday morning.
At 9:02 a.m., the cutter’s boarding team intercepted the vessel carrying four adults with all persons claiming Mexican nationality.
Crew members aboard the Benjamin Bottoms detained all four people and transferred them to another DHS agency at Ballast Point for further investigation.
